102 episodes
- Welcome to the very first episode of a brand new series on The Joy Broadcast!
After celebrating 100 episodes, I wanted to do something different. This series brings together a collective of incredible people whose work and modalities have helped me on my own journey back to joy. Manifestation. Visualisation. Energy work. Sound healing. All the things the corporate version of me would have rolled her eyes at a decade ago. Each episode, you’ll meet one of the teachers who showed up exactly when I needed them, and you’ll hear how their tools could help you too.
And who better to open the series than the woman who gave me one of the most powerful experiences of my life?
At Manifest in 2025, Victoria Jackson guided a room full of us through a visualisation that brought me to ugly, glorious tears. I saw the beach house. The curtains blowing in the wind. My husband surrounded by our grandchildren. A wall of photographs from a life well lived. It wasn’t a daydream. It felt like a memory of my future.
Victoria was once the biggest cynic. A menswear magazine editor travelling the world, meeting Vivienne Westwood and Tom Ford, invited to Downing Street, and deeply unhappy. Crying on the M62, hair falling out, heart racing. When a friend suggested The Secret, she thought it was absolute rubbish. Then something clicked. Gratitude. A pink feather in an envelope. £125, to the exact pound. And the morning she told her colleagues she’d manifested her way out of her job, the whole department was made redundant by lunchtime.
Today, Victoria is the founder of The Manifestation Collective, an author of three books, and a self-confessed “slow manifester”. Together we explore why detachment speeds things up, why you must become the person who can hold the magic rather than simply receive it, and how visualisation works as a dress rehearsal for who you’re becoming.
Cynic or believer, this one is for you.
In this episode we explore
Why gratitude is the foundation of all joy, and how it shifted everything on Victoria’s daily commute
The pink feather, the £125 and the redundancy: what rapid manifestation taught her about detachment
Being a “slow manifester” and the four year journey from Instagram story to speaking at Happy Place Festival
Why you need to become the person who holds the magic, the money and the love
The microwave generation: chasing the feeling rather than the thing
The biggest blocks to manifestation: fear of failure, worthiness and money that never feels safe to keep
Visualisation as dress rehearsal, and why athletes use it to win
Self-concept work for health and money, including the dream weight on the scales
Victoria’s Human Design as a 3/5 Manifestor and why she needed the science
Romanticising your life: the five star turndown service you can give yourself tonight

https://www.alimortimer.com/ - Welcome to episode 101, and what better way to celebrate than going back to Joy 101? In this short, sharp episode, Ali shares three of her favourite joy tools. These are the ones she reaches for herself and uses with her Brilliance clients and Joy Rebels whenever life delivers a plot twist, a sticky season, a power pivot, or a detour down the rabbit hole on the way to purpose.
Each one is a "rampage": a stream of consciousness you can speak out loud in the car, voice note on a dog walk, or scribble in your journal. Use them one at a time or all three together.
Rampage 1: The Gratitude Rampage (to lift your mood)
Ali opens up about how a gratitude practice, first given to her by a grief counsellor, carried her through some of the hardest moments of her life, and how even on the night before her mum died, she could still find something to be thankful for. She shares the gratitude insight from Rhonda Byrne's The Magic, Brené Brown's research showing that it's the gratitude practice that brings joy (not the other way round), and why saying thank you out loud tells the universe you're open to receiving more.
Rampage 2: The Shit-Shifting Rampage Release (when you feel heavy and stuck)
For when every door seems to close, it's all taking too long, and it simply isn't fair. Ali invites you to get your Marigolds on, let your inner toddler or teenager have their moment, and write (or shout) your unfiltered letter to the universe. Inspired by the stream-of-consciousness approach in Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way, this is about getting the heaviness out so it stops weighing you down.
Rampage 3: The Casting Spells Rampage (to vision your future)
If you can connect the dots looking back, why not cast them forward? Ali shares the story of how one chance seat in a university dining room led to a ski trip and, eventually, to James. She explains how to playfully imagine the many wild and wonderful routes your desires could arrive by, and why this lifts you into joy, the frequency of the super attractor.
Also in this episode:
Why you should absolutely get your hopes up, and how a client's rampage was followed by a mind-blowing breakthrough the very next day
The coach's challenge: write 50 ways you could receive the thing you want
Why grown women can handle a little disappointment, and how fearing it closes the door on everything else that's possible
Your invitation this week: Pick the rampage you need most right now and try it on your next drive or walk. Ali would love to hear how it goes.
This episode contains strong language and discusses baby loss and bereavement. Please look after yourself while listening.

https://www.alimortimer.com/ - In this very special milestone episode of The Joy Broadcast, Ali shares the funny story of how she discovered she'd reached episode 100 (spoiler: Buzzsprout didn't tell her). It happened on a Monday afternoon when that familiar inner voice was loudly insisting she hadn't done enough, wasn't far enough along, and should be doing more.
Ali takes you inside her "Just On You" moment, the powerful reframe her mentor offered, and the simple look-back exercise that turned shame into pride. She also reveals how a voice that once felt like a stick to beat herself with became something far lighter and far more magical: her Joy Fairy, complete with bliss bubble and wand.
If you're an ambitious woman who always sees the gap between where you are and where you want to be, this one is for you.
In this episode:
Why Ali's "you haven't done enough" voice gets so loud, and how she now recognises it rather than letting it run the show
Using JOY (Just On You) to pause, ask how you're feeling, and decide what you need
The look-back exercise: listing everything you've done since this time last year across self-care, home, family, friends, career and adventures
Ali's own list, from getting two sons through A levels and a hundred-plus holiday bookings, to growing her Instagram community by 800%, writing her book CALM, 60 Substack essays, speaking to over 600 people, opening The Joy Rebellion and walking alongside 17 brilliant women in private mentorship.
Why joy is the fuel, the frequency of peak performance and your competitive edge
The Joy Fairy question: one more sprinkle of joy, or "don't meddle with the joy magic"?
Two exercises to take away:
Look back to leap forward. Sit down and write out everything you've achieved since this time last year. Get the facts. You'll be amazed.
Swap the stick for a wand. When the "not enough" voice appears, recognise it as your superpower in disguise. Ask your inner 'Joy Fairy': is there a little more magic to sprinkle today, or is it time to let the joy do its thing?

Share your wins: What have you achieved this year? Ali would love to hear. Send her a message or tag her on Instagram with your look-back list.
Thank you to every listener, every guest, and everyone who has shared, commented and helped the ripple of joy reach the millions and the masses. See you next week for Joy 101!

Please note: this episode contains some strong language.
https://www.alimortimer.com/ - What if the empty nest wasn't empty at all? In this episode, recorded on the autumn equinox, Ali floats a new phrase she wants to become a household term: joy nesting, the new empty nesting.
With her eldest just off to university, Ali shares how she has turned fear into joy, and why this matters whether you're waving off children or letting go of a business or career you've built for years. She walks through the three Ps that so often hold the fear: the people (who am I with now?), the purpose (what do I do with all this time and headspace?) and the person (who am I now?), and how they tie back to her 'who, do and you' framework.
Ali talks about some of the very relevant conversations around fear and reconnecting with your partner, redefining success for this era, using your values as a lens for big decisions, and creating a joyful nest your children will want to come home to, both physically and energetically.
She also shares the story behind her own joy nesting initiation: a hell yes to travelling to Tanzania with The Lyra Walk, walking alongside girls on their long journey to school, and how she tested that decision against her values of grit, growth, gratitude, grace, genuine and generosity.

https://www.alimortimer.com/ - Ali's back after a summer off the mic, and she's opening up the whole Joy Empire in one episode.
A debrief of all that happened over the summer, from sailing in Greece, six weeks of Michelin-star chaos in Cornwall, a spontaneous four-day dash to Barcelona, and a bike ride along the seafront that turned into the moment she realised she'd built the exact life she set out to build ten years ago.
From there, she invites you to walk through an arch of roses into the Joy Empire - and gives you your own personalised shopping experience, sharing all the ways you can experience joy from her services and products, from the most exclusive to the wildly, gloriously inclusive and free.

What’s inside the Joy Rebellion Library
When it comes to joy, I believe there are some key ingredients. Inside the Joy Library, there are programmes and courses built to guide you to the best quality version of each one.
